    +1 from me...I love the idea of this build but do wish that there was a way to get other companions without having to avoid the main quest with esbern and delphine.  Also in the perk calculator it says this build goes to 37.  I suggest taking heavy armor and one handed in case you do have to fight.  You don't have to invest a lot in it but it gives you some offense and defense just in case =)

    Just realized something... You have a picture of a elf but in the build you say pick an imperial... Care to explain?

    I actually stumbled across this picture while hunting for screen caps of a character in Tavern Clothes, I found this and liked it so much I went for it. Race is not crucial to the build, as all races have the potential to be leaders, Imperials are just notoriously charismatic, as seen in their racial abilites.

    Thanks! I'm glad you like the concept. I just mapped out the main perks, I usually do a more through spread. If played to 50, you could surely invest the 13 points in more combat oriented skills for those stick situations, but I feel that this really more of a 25 kind of build, (rounding the 37 down rather than up).

    Oh... That makes sense. I think I'll try this with a Breton, they seem to be the only race where I can make a decent looking female character.

    A fine call, the've got a great skillset for the job. I could see them being more of a Gandalf type leader, guiding by wisdom, experience, and knowledge, over the raw charisma, tactics, and purse strings of an Imperial. Let me know how it goes Po!

    Just found out that if when you first meet Serana you can add her as a follower even if you already have one, you wanna add that to the build? Might be useful to add a stealthy Mage in the group

    shes not only a mage but a vampiric necromancer

    This could be good with Dawnguard update...

    because of a 'glitch' i think, u can get 2 followers (only one chance to do so) with both serena and maybe mjoll.

    and you can also buy an armored troll from Gunmar which is awesome, so total 3

    and u can get two thralls or atronachs which brings the total to 5 followers + you :)

    Aye Aye, I've taken thralls into account!
